Bio-inspired robot control based on BeagleBone board

Internship IRCCyN - 2015 - bachelor

This project was part of a 1-month internship. I was in charge of the programming and the electronic of the robot. The robot is a bio-inspired robot; which purpose is to scrawl into canalization like a warm. I didn’t take part into the design of the robot.

Hardware:

  • BeagleBone Black
  • Maxon motor control (36/3 EC)
  • Maxon EC-max 283828

Software dev:

  • Code::Blocks
  • Putty

I used an already existing project based on the BeagleBone board to interface the motor. During this project, it was the first time I code on a Linux based board, and deal with real robotic project. I achieved the electronic connection and configuration with the motor. I was able to interface the EQEP (Enhanced Quadrature Encoder Pulse) by pulling signal out and so improve the control of the robot. And I developed a good basic for the future robot development.

It was really interesting and educational project. The robot successfully accomplished a demonstration into a robotic convention, 1 month after the end of my internship.

The following documentation is in French. (do not hesitate if you want more information in English)
